"You dare!" The voice was not high, but its deterrent power was enough to shock the hearts of all the people present.

Tread-tap-

The well-dressed knights in black automatically moved out of the way again, and all of them tightened their chests even more strangely, their eyes flickered, as if they were going through... a review!

The word flashed across Wan'er's mind, and the scenes of the head of state inspecting the army that she had seen on TV in her previous life emerged frame by frame.

and so……

Wan'er couldn't control her emotions anymore, and she didn't know where she got her strength, probably from her heart, she hurriedly broke free from the shackles of her eldest grandson Qiu.

She wanted to jump off the horse, but at this moment, she really didn't have such things as "equestrian skills".

So, after a stagger, Wan'er fell straight to the horse!

Wan'er's mind was spinning for a while, and she could even see the land on the ground ruthlessly slapping her face.

Will it be disfigured?

The forehead is already disfigured, if...

Suddenly, what Wan'er thought of was this.

The scene in front of my eyes changes, only in the blink of an eye.

Wan'er realized that her body was pulled back to its original position by an external force, and she just sat on the horse's back, behind the horse's neck.

And the owner of the external force exerted on her is currently wrapping one hand around her waist, while the other hand is tightly holding the reins next to the horse's neck.

From the corner of Wan'er's eyes, she could just see that hand, with slender finger bones and wheat-colored skin. Every muscle on the back of the hand seemed to be full of strength.

Wan'er clenched her teeth.

This hand belonged to Changsun Qiu, and his skin color was exactly the same as Changsun Qiu's.

It must be because he often travels around the rivers and lakes and practices martial arts. The complexion of the eldest grandson is a healthy wheat color, just like those heroic female soldiers Wan'er saw on TV in her previous life...

This kind of skin color is completely different from the fair and delicate skin that Wan'er is familiar with and that belongs to that person.

That person's whole body, from the inside to the outside, exudes elegance and grace, as well as the aloofness of life and death.

Who dares to say that that person has no strength?

Wan'er has personally seen her...strength before, and she will not plunder her domineeringness at the last moment.

wrong!What am I thinking?

Wan'er suddenly realized that she was thinking about "that" thing at this moment, and at the same time, another kind of fear also occupied her.

Before... that voice before...

that person……

Wan'er suddenly raised her head and looked forward——

Sure enough, she fell into those eyes that she was extremely familiar with and extremely longing for.

But the owner of those eyes... what a mocking look, as if Wan'er had really done something unfaithful to her.

Wan'er was stung by Empress Wu's eyes.

She wanted her to miss her but couldn't see her. After so long, could it be that she was going to be misunderstood when they met again just now?

Wan'er's eyes were reddened by this tormenting thought, and she struggled desperately, even if she fell off the horse again, she didn't care.

Changsun Qiu didn't expect her to be so stubborn, fearing that she would fall off the horse again, he put his arms around her desperately.

Unable to hold back Wan'er's stubborn struggle, soon a thin layer of sweat appeared on Changsun Chou's forehead.

"Be quiet! Do you want to fall to your death!" Changsun Qiu whispered in Wan'er's ear.

Such a scene, in the eyes of Empress Wu, gave another impression.

When she saw Wan'er struggling desperately for the first time, Empress Wu was moved for a moment. The body that was sitting upright on the horse couldn't help leaning forward.

But the next moment, what did she see?

She saw the dark-looking woman leaning on the little thing's ear and whispering something.

How dare!

Empress Wu suddenly tightened her grip on the reins, her eyes were full of cruelty: "Take it!"

Following her command, more than [-] well-dressed knights drew their weapons in their hands at the same time.

More than twenty cold lights dazzled people's eyes, and each cold light pointed directly at Changsun Qiu.

This sudden change made Taiping's face turn pale and his lips tightened.

She looked at her mother uncomfortably, and then at those well-dressed knights who were staring at her, and she felt even more uncomfortable.

Has mother forgotten that these well-dressed knights belong to the princess mansion?

Or, did mother do this... on purpose?

My mother did this on purpose, so that she could clearly understand one thing: every piece of clothing, food, soldiers, and horses are all given by the Queen of Heaven, and they all belong to...the Queen of Heaven.

Thinking like this, Taiping finally held back the idea of ​​giving orders to stop the knights.

To do that would undoubtedly be disobedience to the mother.

Taiping knew that she didn't need to remind her mother that it was her mother who secretly ordered her to bring powerful cronies to pick up Wan'er and her party outside the city.

But the mother came in person again, it must not be that she forgot, but...she was worried, maybe she still didn't trust herself?

Taiping didn't know how much he was right in his suspicion that his mother didn't trust him.

But one thing is certain: the Shangguan Wan'er who is in deep trouble in front of her is someone her mother really cares about.

Taiping couldn't help feeling sore in his heart, for his father, whose bones were still alive——

Although the Tian family has no family ties, even if the father hurt him, but after all, it was his father, the dead Emperor Daxing...

Perhaps, no matter the father, her, and her brothers, including the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, clan relatives and close relatives, no one can stop what mother wants to do, right?

A fateful sense of powerlessness crossed Taiping's heart.

She is no longer the proud little princess who can do whatever she wants back then. The years have allowed her to grow up rapidly, and have taught her how to see the situation clearly and how to strive for the best interests for herself.

After all, she still has Lin'er to protect, and she still has...

Subconsciously, Taiping turned his head slightly, and met Du Suran who was looking at her tacitly at the same time.

That stare at each other seemed to wake up all of Du Suran's vitality at once.

She suddenly rolled off the saddle and knelt down in front of Empress Wu: "Tian Hou Ming Jian! This is the senior sister of the minister! She escorted the Shangguan lady all the way, and she did her best without half-heartedness. Just because she was born in the Jianghu, she couldn't help being reckless. I don't know how to be polite...but she has absolutely no intention of offending and disobeying! Please forgive her for the sake of escorting her all the way!"

At the same time, Du Suran did not forget to shout to his grandson Qiu: "Senior Sister! Hurry up and get off the horse!"

Changsun Qiu didn't move.

She still stared blankly at Empress Wu's face, forgetting Wan'er who was struggling.Her eyes were provocative, looking at Empress Wu provocatively.

How could Empress Wu be afraid of being stared at by her?

Empress Wu raised her chin slightly, her eyes focused on Du Suran's posture protecting Wan'er, her phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously.

The air froze for a moment.

Taiping watched Du Suran kneeling on the ground, his green clothes covered with dust.

And Du Suran was surrounded by horseshoes, kicking and trampling, there was no guarantee that a horseshoe would step on her in the next step...

In Taiping's heart, pain welled up without warning.

She suddenly stepped forward, approached Empress Wu, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Aniang, the Shangguan is in her hands now, and he may be injured at any time... Please take care of the Shangguan, Aniang... ..."

Empress Wu glanced at her sideways: I will take care of my people!

When peace was reached, he stopped talking and backed away.

Empress Wu's eyes were still fixed on Changsun Qiu holding Wan'er's hand.

After a few breaths, she suddenly smiled coolly.

The tense atmosphere was instantly relieved because of her inexplicable smile.

Everyone was relieved, but another doubt came to their minds: why is the queen laughing?

Changsun Qiu also let out a foul breath because of Empress Wu's smile.

She thought that she was not afraid of the sky and the earth, and that she was used to the wind and rain, but she had to admit that when she really faced the Empress Wu who was said by the world to cover the sky with one hand, she could barely maintain her superficial toughness.

If she was allowed to go further with Empress Wu, she really couldn't do it.

Although, Changsun Qiu said that he would never admit this fact.

"Get up." Empress Wu said indifferently to Du Suran.

"But Tianhou..." Du Suran hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something more.

"Tian Hou makes her own decision, this is not the time for you and me to talk too much." Taiping interjected at the right time.

Empress Wu obviously didn't expect Taiping to speak for Du Suran suddenly, she turned her face and glanced at Taiping.

Taiping was nervous when she looked at him, so he hurriedly lowered his head slightly, showing a respectful gesture.

Empress Wu then stopped talking to Du Suran, and turned her face back, staring at Changsun Qiu, her eyes became cold again.

"Your surname is Changsun, and your name is Qiu?" Empress Wu said.

When he heard her question, Changsun Qiu instinctively tensed up.

Du Suran stood beside her with his hands down, looking at her worriedly, fearing that she might say something wrong and offend Empress Wu.

Unexpectedly, Empress Wu didn't want to listen to Changsun Qiu's answer.

She continued to herself: "You are from the Changsun family, and you have a grudge against the Changsun family."

The very firm tone seemed to have seen through the details of Changsun Chou.

Changsun Chou's face turned pale when he heard the words, as if thinking of something in the past that he didn't want to recall, her tense body swayed twice on the horse's back.

Empress Wu let out a light snort, and flicked the horsewhip leisurely, very satisfied to see that Changsun Qiu was no longer able to take care of Wan'er.

She was very happy to see Changsun Qiu's two paws trembling, forgetting to restrain Wan'er.

Now that she has gained an advantage in momentum, Empress Wu doesn't mind turning this momentum into an overwhelming one.

"Is this how your mother taught you to talk to the venerable!" Empress Wu suddenly raised her eyes, and two sharp lights shot out.

Obviously, the existence of "mother" is very important in Changsun Qiu's heart.

Changsun Qiu could no longer support his apparent strength, and his hands drooped downwards.

She seemed to want to make an effort to control Wan'er, but finally gave up, and her hands dropped completely.

Du Suran breathed a sigh of relief at this situation.

Even Taiping felt that the air around him was not so difficult to breathe.

Empress Wu did not stop there.

She still narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in an unchangeable tone: "However you plunder my people, you can invite them down!"
